Critics Reviews

Kimberly Potts New York Magazine/Vulture No TV show should have been able to wring humor from a pair of episodes that revolved around domestic violence, but [the] two-parter in which Jackie's live-in boyfriend Fisher was revealed to be a serial batterer did just that. Mar 5, 2019 Full Review Noel Murray AV Club There's a whistling-past-the-graveyard quality to this Roseanne -- and many others, for that matter. But there are also moments of real heft in "Wait Till Your Father Gets Home." Mar 4, 2019 Full Review Ed Siegel Boston Globe There's no heft here except in poundage. May 4, 2018 Full Review Joe Reid Decider I can't guarantee this was everyone's favorite Roseanne, but I can at least declare one thing: season 5 had the best single Jackie scene of all time.
